A staple of fall is pumpkin. One of our go-to pumpkin recipes is this quick and easy pumpkin bread recipe. We often spice it up by adding chocolate chips or pair it with a rich cream cheese frosting. This recipe makes about four loafs. Gift them to your friends and neighbors or make them for a family gathering!
